I have configured a FreeBSD 11-RELEASE virtual guest to authenticate against these kerberos servers. Auth works ok, but ssh doesn't request a kerberos ticket (I am connecting from a Windows 10 workstation with putty):
When you say "auth works ok", I assume that means that PuTTY does not
prompt for a password? If it does prompt for a password, you are
definitely not using GSSAPI at the ssh-connection layer (even if that
password is being checked against a KDC on the ssh server).

You probably don't need that, if you've got mod_krb5.so in your PAM
config. This only applies when PasswordAuthentication is negotiated
for an SSH session, anyway.

When you configure your PuTTY connection for your FreeBSD machine,
make sure you check the "Allow GSSAPI credential delegation" in
Connection -> SSH -> Auth -> GSSAPI. Seems to work for me.
